Manfrotto 099B Study Foot Extension

Manfrotto 099B Study Foot Extension Pole

Elevate your lighting capabilities and unlock new creative angles with the Manfrotto 099B Study Foot Extension Pole. This essential accessory for photographers and videographers is engineered for those who demand flexibility, reliability, and precision in their setup. Designed to work seamlessly with a floor stand base (like the Manfrotto 297BBASE), this extension pole transforms a low-profile foot into a fully functional, height-adjustable stand, perfect for backlighting, hair lights, or any situation requiring an unobtrusive yet sturdy support system.

Achieve the perfect lighting placement without the bulk of a traditional tripod stand. The Manfrotto 099B is the ideal solution for positioning your lights low to the ground for dramatic uplighting effects or extending them high for broad, overhead coverage. Its remarkable lightweight design, weighing a mere 0.6 kg, makes it an indispensable tool for on-location shoots, studio work, and travel. Crafted from high-quality aluminium with a durable black painted finish, it offers the perfect balance of portability and robust Manfrotto performance, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of professional use.

The pole´s intelligent 3-section design allows for rapid and secure height adjustments, giving you complete control over your lighting environment. Its impressive range, extending from a minimum height of 88cm up to a maximum height of 235cm, provides unparalleled versatility to adapt to any creative challenge. When your shoot is complete, it collapses down to a compact and manageable 90 cm, making storage and transport effortless.

Key Features:

* Versatile Extension Range: The pole extends smoothly from 35 to 92 inches (0.89 - 2.3 m), offering a vast range of height options for precise light positioning.
* Secure 3-Section Design: Features three reliable aluminium sections that lock firmly into place, providing stable support for your equipment.
* Standard Mounting Stud: Tops off with a universal stud with a 3/8´´ thread, ensuring wide compatibility with a variety of lighting fixtures and accessories.
* Durable Construction: Made of high-quality, lightweight aluminium with a professional, non-reflective black painted finish to minimize glare on set.

Adapters and Compatibility

The Manfrotto 099B is equipped with a standard 3/8" male thread stud, making it instantly compatible with a vast ecosystem of professional photo and video equipment, including light heads, brackets, and other grip accessories. This universal connection ensures you can integrate it into your existing kit with ease. For equipment requiring a 1/4"-20 thread, a simple adapter (sold separately) can be used to further expand its compatibility.
